Removing/Installing the Inner Baffle

The inner flow-control baffle can be removed depending on

the mowing conditions. The baffle controls discharge and can

be removed for high-volume grasses and installed for precision

cutting.

Remove the carriage bolts and flange lock nuts that secure

1.

the baffle to the deck to mow high-volume grasses. See

Fig. 6-11.

Re-install the inner baffle for precision cutting and make

2.

sure the baffle is properly secured.

Brakes

The parking brake pedal should engage with moderate force. To

increase parking brake capacity, adjust brake cables at the brake

arms equally. Adjust the cable housing nuts one full turn and

check parking capacity. Repeat if parking brake does not hold.
The mower is equipped with drum brakes and will not normally

require maintenance. If they are not working properly, please

contact your service center.

Adjusting the Front Skirt

The front skirt can be raised or lowered depending on the

mowing conditions. The skirt has three settings; low, medium

and high. See the table on page 23 in the Operation section for

more information. Raise the skirt to cut higher volumes of grass

and lower the skirt to increase grass lift for precision cutting.

Loosen — but do not remove — the nuts securing the skirt,

1.

place in the proper position and then retighten the nut.

See Fig. 6-10.

Repeat on the other side and be sure that both skirts are in

2.

the same position.
